Late try sees Bedwas clinch bonus-point win over Narberth

A late Dafydd Thomas try kept Bedwas in the title race with a bonus-point win over a spirited Narberth.

Bedwas kept up the pressure on league leaders Bargoed with a 36-31 win over Cardiff Met.

On the brink of collapse post-Covid, Aberbargoed RFC and Markham RFC joined forces to save rugby in their communities.

Bargoed cruised to a 56-19 win over struggling Tata Steel in the WRU National Championship.

Bedwas earned a losing bonus-point in a narrow 16-12 defeat to Glamorgan Wanderers on Saturday, March 12.

Senghenydd RFC manager Richard Gater said the club had to move its focus away from winning and towards player development and enjoyment.

One of the oldest clubs in Wales – predating the WRU by ten years – Machen RFC is celebrating its 150th anniversary this season.

Scottish rugby club Hawick Harlequins RFC made their biannual touring trip to Bargoed this weekend as part of a 52-year tradition.

Bargoed remain top of the table after a comeback win at Neath, while Bedwas stay second after a convincing win over Beddau.

Bedwas survived a late Ystalyfera surge to hold on for victory in what was a keenly-fought WRU National Championship clash at the Bridgefield.
